I know that the city and the state appreciates everything you do.”

I’m glad to be here to tell them how thankful I am for what they do and help give them a break Saturday night.

 

 

 

“Training in California has really opened my eyes to see so many different cultures and so many different things that are going on here. There’s a lot of homeless people on the streets and when I go home I’m going to build homes for the homeless and set up funds for those in need. Being here has given me that extra push to do more.”

Chance of a lifetime for heavyweight prospect Alexander “The Great” Flores

Hits road to face former world champion
Joseph Parker
Disember. 15 in New Zealand

LAS VEGAS (November 20, 2018) – Former World Boxing Organization (WBO Youth World Heavyweight Champion Alexander “The Great” Flores, promoted by Roy Jones, Jr. Tinju (RJJ), has an opportunity of a lifetime December 15, when the gifted 28-year-old Mexican-American travels halfway around the world to take on former world heavyweight titlist Joseph Parker in New Zealand.

Fighting out of Rowland Heights, California, the heavy-handed Flores (17-1-1, 15 KOs) is confident as he trains at home to face Parker in his backyard.

“There is no way this fight goes 10 pusingan,” Flores said. “I’m going to knock him out. A lot of people might not have heard of Alexander ‘The Great’ Flores yet, but they’ll all know who I am after December 15th.”

Flores’ lone loss as a professional came 3 ½ years ago against former world champion Charles Martin for the North American Boxing Association (NABF) mahkota. Bunga, who took the fight with only two weeks’ notice, was stopped in the fourth round.

“Alexander can dramatically change his life by defeating Parker and we’re confident he can go to New Zealand and pull off an upset,” said Keith Veltre, co-promoter of Roy Jones, Jr. Tinju. “Alexander has power in both hands and he will certainly test Parker’s chin. Flores isn’t going over there just for a paycheck, he’s going to send shockwaves throughout the boxing world.”

An impressive victory against Parker, who has lost his last two fights against unified world champion Anthony Joshua and Dillian White, should propel Flores high in the competitive heavyweight division.

“I’m really glad that Alex is coming to New Zealand full of confidence,” remarked Parker, who is training in Las Vegas. "Untuk saya, boxing is all about the challenge, and this is another big one. I know what is at stake. I need to win and win well. I need to knock him out and I will knock him out, but I can’t focus on that. I need to focus on getting better each and every time I get in the ring.”

Parker has never been knocked out as a pro and he’ll be fighting at home for the first time in 1 ½ tahun.

“After a five-year undefeated run that took Joe all the way to the WBO World title, we now find ourselves in very unusual territory, coming off back-to-back loses,” Parker’s head trainer Kevin Barry noted. “Joe has never been in this position before and needs a top performance. Joe finds himself under huge pressure to not only win this fight, but to win big and get his career back on track.

“These guys (Parker and Flores) are the same height (6’ 4”) and both pack a serious punch, so it stacks up as a great contest. Ini adalah perjuangan berbahaya, one that Joseph Parker is fighting for his career.”

Parker, Walau bagaimanapun, may be looking past Flores, according to his recent statements in the media. Pertama, Parker called out Tony Bellew, who just lost to undisputed, undefeated world cruiserweight champion Oleksandr Usyk, and then the big New Zealander said he’d like to fight the winner of Whyte-Derek Chisora II.

Sementara itu, Flores is training like Rocky to make a major statement, one that promises to surprise a lot of boxing fans.

Heavyweight Contenders Luis Ortiz and Joe Joyce Compete In Separate Bouts and Look To Position Themselves For Title Shot In Resurgent Division

NEW YORK (November 9, 2018) – The most significant heavyweight event in the U.S. in more than 15 years will feature an undercard lineup of stellar fighters including the return of a unified world champion and two of boxing’s hardest-hitting heavyweights.

 

 

 

Tanpa ditewaskan, unified 154-pound world champion Jarrett Hurd along with heavyweight title contender Luis Ortiz and top heavyweight prospect Joe Joyce will fight in separate bouts on the SHOWTIME PPV® undercard of the Deontay Wilder vs. Luis Ortiz heavyweight blockbuster event presented by Premier Boxing Champions on Saturday, Disember 1 di Staples Center di Los Angeles.

 

 

 

Hurd (22-0, 15 KOs) returns for his first fight since unifying the super welterweight division earlier this year to defend his IBF and WBA titles against British Commonwealth champ Jason Welborn (24-6, 7 KOs). Hurd, who edged Erislandy Lara in a leading candidate for 2018 Fight of the Year in April on SHOWTIME, will enter the ring for the first time since undergoing rotator cuff surgery as he targets another title unification in 2019.

 

 

 

Cuban heavyweight slugger Luis Ortiz (29-1, 25 KOs) will continue his quest for a second shot at a heavyweight world championship as he takes on American Travis Kauffman (32-2, 23 KOs) dalam pertarungan 10 pusingan. Ortiz went toe-to-toe with Wilder in another contender for Fight of the Year in March on SHOWTIME and returns for his third bout of 2018 with his sights set on a rematch with Wilder.

 

 

 

In the opening bout of the SHOWTIME PPV, 2016 Olympic Silver Medalist and unbeaten heavyweight Joe Joyce (6-0, 6 KOs) will face his sixth opponent of 2018 apabila dia bertemu Joe Hanks (23-2, 15 KOs) in a 10-round heavyweight bout.

 

 

 

“This fan-friendly undercard features two participants from 2018 Fight of the Year candidates, Jarrett Hurd and Luis Ortiz, along with one of the hottest rising talents in the heavyweight division,” kata Stephen Espinoza, Presiden, Sports and Event Programming, Showtime Networks Inc. “Heavyweight boxing has re-captured the world’s attention and both of these potentially explosive fights will help shape the future of the division. Jarrett Hurd emerged as one of boxing’s most exciting fighters in unifying the super welterweight division in 2018. Sekarang, he returns from a significant injury to risk his titles in his quest to become undisputed 154-pound world champion.”

 

 

 

Tiket untuk acara, which is promoted by BombZquad Enterprises and Queensberry Promotions, in association with TGB Promotions and DiBella Entertainment, are on sale now and are available via AXS.com. Wilder vs. Fury will be produced and distributed by SHOWTIME PPV. The suggested retail price (SRP) for the pay-per-view telecast is $64.99 for standard definition.

 

 

 

Hurd, who hails from Accokeek, Md., floored Erislandy Lara in the final minute of their unification showdown to earn the narrow split-decision victory over the divisions’ longest-reigning champion. Mengikuti pertarungan, Hurd underwent surgery and subsequent rehab to repair a rotator cuff. Hurd won the IBF title with a TKO of Tony Harrison in 2017 and handed Austin Trout his first loss via knockout later that year. The 28-year-old is known for his all-action, fan-pleasing style that had seen him record seven straight stoppages prior to his decision win over Lara.

 

 

 

“‘Swift’ is back and Christmas is coming early,” kata Hurd. “This is the perfect way to get ready for 2019. I expect it to be a big year with big fights that the fans will love. I’m locked in right now and ready to put on a great performance against Jason Welborn. Tune in on December 1, because I promise you it won’t go 12 rounds.”

 

 

 

Jason Welborn, from West Midlands, England, akan membuat A.S. beliau. debut on the heels of two wins over previously once-beaten Tommy Langford for the British middleweight title in 2018. Langford now moves back to the 154-pound class, where he has faced Matthew Macklin and Liam Smith in all-British encounters.

 

 

 

“Jarrett Hurd is a big talent who holds all the belts and I respect the challenge he poses,” said Welborn. “I was a huge underdog against Tommy Langford in May and I came through and shocked Britain. Pada bulan Disember, I’m going to shock the world. I’ve been in training camp since my last fight and I’ve already been preparing for Hurd’s style. This is my time.”

 

 

 

The 39-year-old Ortiz returns to STAPLES Center for his second consecutive fight in Los Angeles after scoring a second-round knockout of Razvan Cojanu in July. In a March, Ortiz nearly had Wilder out on his feet in the seventh until he ultimately succumbed to Wilder’s power in the 10th round, suffering the first loss of his professional career. A consensus top-5 heavyweight, Ortiz will look for another knockout as he hopes to earn a rematch with Wilder in the revived heavyweight division.

 

 

 

“I feel blessed to be on the Wilder vs. Fury card and competing on a huge night of boxing in front of a full house,” kata Ortiz. “In my last fight at STAPLES Center the fans showed me so much love and I can’t wait to be back. I know Travis Kauffman has a good record and I know he’s definitely got heart. If all goes as expected and Wilder puts Fury to sleep like I think he will, I want another shot at him ASAP. It will be an epic rematch between me and Wilder.”

 

 

 

Kauffman, Reading, Penn., is coming off a majority decision over Scott Alexander in May in which the two heavyweights traded first round knockdowns. Kauffman is 14-1 (1 NC) dalam yang terakhir 16 fights with the sole loss coming to Amir Mansour in March 2017.

 

 

 

“I’m looking forward to stepping up and challenging myself in an exciting fight,” berkata Kauffman. “Luis Ortiz is the second best heavyweight in the world next to Deontay Wilder. But I’m the toughest fighter you’ll ever face. This is my chance to prove that I’m a great fighter and I’m excited to do it on this huge stage.”

 

 

 

The 6-foot-6 Joyce, London, England, has started his professional career with a 100 percent KO rate after turning professional in 2017 pada usia 32. Amatur yang berjaya, Joyce claimed the super heavyweight silver medal for Great Britain at the 2016 Sukan Olimpik. Joyce, who trains in Big Bear, Calif. under renowned trainer Abel Sanchez, dibuat A.S. beliau. debut in September with a fifth-round knockout of Iago Kiladze.

 

 

 

“It’s an honor to be part of this huge event and I give a lot of credit to Joe Hanks for stepping up and taking this fight,” said Joyce. “Hanks has a good record, but I am coming to take him out. If everything goes to plan and I come through this fight as I should, I am ready for a big fight early next year to show that I’m a force in this division.”

 

 

 

Hanks, Newark, N.J., started his career with a 21-0 run before suffering consecutive losses to Andy Ruiz Jr. dalam 2013 and Derric Rossy in 2014. After a three-and-a-half-year layoff following the loss to Rossy, Hanks, who lives in downtown Los Angeles, has recovered his form and returned to score a unanimous decision over Joel Caudle and a first round knockout of Terrence Marbra in consecutive fights.

 

 

 

“It feels good to be in the mix and getting exposure with the top heavyweights,” said Hanks. “I bring speed, athleticism and power to this fight. I’ve got a lot of great experience in my career sparring against guys like Deontay Wilder and Wladimir Klitschko, so I’m comfortable against a guy like Joe Joyce. I live in Los Angeles now and this is going to be like fighting in my front yard. I’m going to be feeling good on fight night.”

tinju, Golden Boy Promosi

Memperkenalkan Sensasi Berat Berat James yang tidak terkalahkan “The Beast” Wilson

Tinggalkan komen
Golden Boy masuk “Mod Binatang atau Mod Tanpa”
Jared Shaw menguruskan kelas berat baru-baru ini menandatangani perjanjian promosi dengan Golden Boy Promotions

Los Angeles, SEPERTI. (November 8, 2018) – Pada zaman di mana tinju kelas berat sekali lagi menjadi bahagian yang panas. Soalannya masih diajukan, siapa yang akan menjadi Mike Tyson seterusnya seperti artis kalah mati? Atau mempunyai sukan seperti bola sepak dan bola keranjang yang mengambil pemain besar terbaik dari tinju?

 

 

 

Masukkan James “The Beast” Wilson.

 

 

 

Wilson mempunyai semua sifat kualiti yang disebutkan di atas. Seorang atlet yang hebat, yang berada di kem latihan NFL dengan latar belakang pertempuran yang menunjukkan kekuatan ganas.

 

 

 

Wilson, yang baru sahaja menandatangani dengan Golden Boy Promotions, mempunyai rekod 8-0 dengan tujuh kalah mati, tetapi kisahnya bermula dari awal 20 tahun lalu di jalan-jalan di Los Angeles.

 

 

 

Wilson telah melalui masa-masa sukar dan kehilangan tempat tinggal antara usia 13 dan 15, tempat dia tidur di motel, bangku taman, dan mandi di taman-taman itu. Wilson mempunyai undang-undang, dan itu mengubah hidupnya….untuk yang lebih baik.

 

 

 

“Saya dikurung dan kemudian ditempatkan dalam kumpulan. Itu sebenarnya membuat saya mempunyai struktur dan meletakkan saya di landasan yang betul. Saya berjaya di sekolah dan mula bermain sukan dan sekarang saya mempunyai pilihan positif dalam hidup saya,” kata Wilson.

 

 

 

Wilson menjadi Pemain Bola Sepak Sekolah Tinggi Los Angeles Times tahun ini, serta Trek tiga kali seluruh bandar & Atlet padang, yang memperolehnya biasiswa ke Concord University di West Virginia.

 

 

 

Wilson, yang menamatkan pengajian dalam bidang sosiologi, kemudian bermain bola sepak profesional di semua tempat, Poland.

 

 

 

Selepas itu dia mendapat jemputan kem latihan dengan Chicago Bears. Namun dia memilih untuk mengikuti minat sukan yang lain.

 

 

 

“Saya mula melakukan Kenpo-Karate, Muay-Thai dan Kickboxing.” Wilson mempunyai rekod Kickboxing profesional 16-2-1 di mana dia bertanding dalam organisasi teratas seperti K-1 dan Glory.

 

 

Selepas itu, Wilson mencuba MMA dan berjaya mengesankan 5-2 merakam dan berjuang untuk Kejohanan Bellator Fighting yang sangat dihormati.

 

 

 

Masih tidak berpuas hati, Wilson mula bertinju.

 

 

 

Wilson kembali mengembara dunia dan memulakan kerjaya gaji di New Zealand.

 

 

 

“Saya kenal seorang penganjur di New Zealand, dan saya dapat bertarung setiap minggu di sana. Itu mempercepat proses dan perkembangan saya. Saya kembali ke Los Angeles, dan berjaya memperoleh empat kemenangan lagi.”

 

 

 

Pada 7-0, Wilson kemudian bertemu dengan pemain industri tinju lama, Jared Shaw.

 

 

 

Shaw melihat video Wilson di akaun Instagramnya, dan menjangkau kelas berat yang tidak terkalahkan.

 

 

 

“Jared menghubungi saya, dan bertemu di gim, dan dia mempunyai visi yang sama untuk saya dengan yang saya miliki, dan selebihnya adalah sejarah.”

 

 

 

“Saya melihat James sebagai berlian yang kasar,” kata Shaw. “Dia mempunyai kombinasi dan kepantasan serta kekuatan yang tidak anda lihat di bahagian kelas berat. Dia mempunyai itu “ia” faktor yang saya lihat dengan Kimbo Slice. Saya cukup bernasib baik kerana telah menandatangani Kimbo dari pergaduhan yang dilihat di Youtube. Ketika Kimbo memasuki sebuah bilik, anda merasakan kehadiran dan tenaga. Saya melihat banyak kualiti yang sama dari segi James sebagai tarikan. Sesiapa yang salah mengira James sebagai pemain bola sepak atau Artist Bela Diri Campuran pasti akan mempunyai tangan penuh di gelanggang tinju. Ini adalah atlet blue-chip, ” kata Shaw, yang dibesarkan dalam sukan ini kerana ayahnya Gary Shaw telah menjadi salah satu penyokong utama di dunia selama tiga dekad yang lalu.

 

 

 

 

 

Tugas pertama Shaw adalah mendapatkan James dengan pelatih yang betul. Masukkan Justin Fortune.

 

 

 

“Saya telah lama mengenali Justin. Baik sebagai pelatih kekuatan dan penyusun dan juga pelatih. Kebanyakan akan mengenalnya di sebelah Manny Pacquiao, tetapi mungkin kebanyakan orang tidak tahu bahawa Justin adalah prospek kelas berat yang melawan Lennox Lewis. Yang paling saya gemari mengenai pasangan ini adalah Justin juga merupakan kelas berat yang lebih pendek, tetapi penukul yang kuat. Pengalamannya selama bertahun-tahun inilah yang akan membantu James mempercepat pertumbuhannya dalam sukan ini. Sebagai satu pasukan, kami mempunyai matlamat untuk mengembalikan kejuaraan dunia ke Los Angeles dan tepat pada masanya,” sambung Shaw.

 

 

 

Langkah seterusnya Shaw adalah mencari promoter yang tepat untuk Wilson masuk, dan kedua-duanya menemui salah satu syarikat terbesar di dunia yang berminat.

 

 

 

“Banyak penganjur melihat saya. Saya bertemu dengan Golden Boy, dan mereka melihat bakat dan visi saya dan saya merasakan bahawa mereka akan mewujudkannya untuk saya, dan membawa saya ke kejuaraan kelas berat dunia,” kata Wilson.

 

 

 

Shaw sangat memperkatakan tentang perkahwinan antara pejuang dan penganjur.

 

 

“Ia adalah keadaan yang sempurna. Golden Boy Promotions adalah salah satu peneraju sukan kami berkaitan dengan syarikat promosi. Dalam situasi ini, ia menunjukkan bahawa anda mempunyai prospek hebat dari Los Angeles yang bertempur dari sebuah syarikat terkenal di dunia yang berpusat di Los Angeles. Kini Golden Boy berada di puncak sukan. Mereka mempromosikan pesawat tempur teratas di Canelo Alvarez, dan mereka berjaya mendapatkannya perjanjian yang belum pernah terjadi sebelumnya dengan DAZN. Kami menantikan peluang yang akan datang untuk James, dan untuk menunjukkan James’ set kemahiran yang luar biasa. saya ada 100% keyakinan terhadap Oscar (De La Hoya), Eric (Gomez) dan Robert (Diaz) untuk memimpin James ke kejuaraan kelas berat dunia, dan bantu memaksimumkan potensi pendapatannya. Los Angeles tidak pernah bergelar juara kelas berat, jadi masuk akal bahawa yang pertama akan bersama pasukan yang berpusat di Los Angeles bersama James, Justin, Budak Emas dan saya sendiri. ”

 

 

 

“Apa yang saya ingin orang tahu tentang James adalah di dalam tali, dia adalah Filem Sorotan Binatang dan Manusia, jadi Jangan Berkelip. Tetapi di luar gelanggang, dia adalah bapa yang luar biasa kepada tiga orang anaknya. Penceramah motivasi yang luar biasa, dan teladan positif kepada bandar-bandar dalaman dan seluruh dunia. Dia besar dalam komuniti dan membantu belia. Terutama mereka yang dibuli.”

 

 

 

Wilson bercakap dengan banyak anak muda mengenai Anti-Buli. “Saya banyak bercakap dan seminar untuk menentang buli. Saya pergi ke banyak sekolah dan memelihara rumah dan menceritakan kisah saya. Saya rasa saya boleh menjadi seseorang yang boleh dilihat oleh anak-anak dan memberitahu mereka bahawa mereka mempunyai masa depan walaupun dalam keadaan apa pun. Saya memberitahu anak-anak bahawa tangan anda adalah senjata, mulut anda adalah senjata, dan satu-satunya tempat untuk bertarung adalah di dalam gelanggang.”

 

 

 

Ketika ditanya siapa dia mahu bertarung dan apa tujuannya dalam sukan ini, Wilson berkata, “Saya tidak mahu memerangi sesiapa sahaja secara khusus, Saya ingin melawan mereka semua.

Training Camp Almost Complete; A Confident and On-Weight Claressa Shields Ready for Hannah Rankin DAZN Showdown on November 17

Tinggalkan komen

Women’s superstar and two-division world champion Claressa Shields is in Florida with trainer John David Jackson, finishing up preparations for her showdown with Glasgow, Scotland’s Hannahh Rankin on Saturday, November 17, at the Kansas Star Arena and Casino in Mulvane, Kansas.

 

 

 

Shields (6-0, 2 KOs) will defend her IBF and WBA World Middleweight Championships, and be looking to add the vacant WBC title, against Rankin (5-2, 1 KO) in the 10-round co-featured bout to Salita Promotions stablemate Jarrell Miller’s heavyweight showdown against Romania’s Bogdan Dinu.

 

 

 

Both fights, along with former world champion Brandon Rios taking on Canelo’s brother, Gambar placeholder Ramon Alvarez, in a super welterweight 10-rounder and former two-time world middleweight title challenger Gabriel Rosado going against once-beaten contender Luis Arias, will be broadcast live on DAZN.

 

 

 

23-year-old Shields, a former two-time Olympic Gold Medallist, has reignited interest in women’s boxing and become a ratings favorite for her nationally televised championship exploits. A proud native of Flint, Michigan, Shields mixes her brash pronouncements of greatness with a genuine and continued effort to inspire female athletes and render aid to members of her home community.

 

 

 

Shields was originally scheduled to face WBC and WBO World Middleweight Champion Christina Hammer on November 17, but the bout was postponed after Hammer withdrew due to medical reasons.

 

Did the change of opponents from Hammer to Rankin affect your training?

 

 

 

I don’t train for my opponents, I just push to get the best out of me, dari segi fizikal dan mental. If I’m the best ‘me,’ I don’t have to worry about who the opponent is. The change of opponents didn’t bother me at all; the worst thing about this camp for me was just all the date changes – constantly having to get my mind focused on the pace and timing of training depending on the fight date. I can’t wait to get in the ring!

 

You’ve fought at super middleweight 168 and recently at middleweight 160 pound. How is your training, diet and any other efforts different to make 160?

 

 

 

Training is always hard and I’m constantly learning. I’ve had a completely different diet this camp – a real change and a positive one for me. I’ve teamed up with Perfecting Athletes for my daily meals, and I feel great. I’ve always tried to eat healthy but these folks are pros and are more educated in that field than myself. I have this magic drink that makes my stomach smile – I love it! It’s watermelon mixed with a green vegetable. I’m not going to tell you what vegetable it is, but I’ve been drinking it everyday, and I feel GREAT.

 

Your viewership numbers have been very strong. Why do you think people are drawn to you?

 

 

 

I believe that people are drawn to how real and honest I am, di dalam dan keluar dari gelanggang. I say what I mean and mean what I say. I’m hard but I have a soft side also. And I think people are drawn to how I fight — not only do I talk a good game but I fight my a– off too! saya beri 1000% every time – I want to change the game and bring a whole new generation of fans to women’s boxing and boxing overall.

 

What do you know about your opponent Hannah Rankin?

 

 

 

I know that my opponent Rankin is very tough and determined to be a world champion. I like her drive, I like her heart. I know that she has been in the ring as a sparring partner for many champions, one being Christina Hammer. So Rankin has seen some good fighters. But one thing is for sure – she has never seen a fighter like me. And since Hammer couldn’t fight because of her medical condition, in many ways the next best thing is to fight and beat her sparring partner and let Rankin tell Hammer what she’s in for when she returns!

 

What needs to be done to solve the Flint water crisis?

 

 

To solve the flint Water crisis, I think that people should continue to give water and also keep it in the news that there is a city in America where, unbelievably, US citizens don’t have clean water. And hopefully the president or our governor do something to fix all the pipes.

 

What’s the secret to becoming the best of the best in any sport?

 

 

 

I believe the secret starts with believing in yourself, being dedicated, working hard and just always striving to be better. I feel I’m my biggest critic when I train and box. It’s hard to watch film of my fights because even though I’m doing 97 things right I just can’t stand to see the 3 things I’m doing wrong. I’m a person who strives to pull out my full potential. It takes guts to be great. Nothing will stand in the way of achieving my goals, which includes being the GWOAT and creating equality for all women fighters when it comes to the money, opportunities and coverage the men get.

LOS ANGELES (November 5, 2018) – WBC Juara World Heavyweight Deontay Wilder held a jam-packed media day Monday in Los Angeles where he discussed his blockbuster matchup against lineal heavyweight champion Tyson Fury taking place Saturday, Disember 1 pada SHOWTIME PPV® dari Staples Center di Los Angeles.

 

 

 

Wilder arrived in Los Angeles, along with trainer Jay Deas, to show off his skills in front of media at Churchill Boxing Club in Santa Monica. The most significant heavyweight event in the U.S. in more than 15 tahun, Wilder vs. Fury tests the raw power of the 6-foot-7 Wilder against the unmatched size and mobility of the 6-foot-9 Fury.

 

 

 

Tiket untuk acara, which is promoted by BombZquad Enterprises and Queensberry Promotions, in association with DiBella Entertainment and TGB Promotions, yang dijual sekarang. Harga tiket bermula $75, plus applicable fees and are available via AXS.com. Wilder vs. Fury will be produced and distributed by SHOWTIME PPV.

 

 

 

Here is what Wilder and Deas had to say Thursday at media day, where Wilder was joined by his girlfriend Telli Swift and their eight-month-old daughter Kaorii:

 

DEONTAY Wilder

 

 

 

“I feel like I’m at my very best right now. Mental, physically and emotionally I’m ready to go. Semuanya sempurna. I just want to get in the ring and show action. Tyson Fury doesn’t know what he’s gotten himself into.

 

 

 

“As a true champion, I know how to adjust to any fighter that’s in front of me. My experience facing fighters of all styles has prepared me for this special fight.

 

 

 

“I’ve had tremendous sparring. Every day I’m making adjustments and getting myself right so I can get my timing and style exactly how it needs to be. If the fight was this weekend, Deontay Wilder is ready to go.

 

 

 

“Luis Ortiz was the most avoided fighter in the heavyweight division and I understand why he had never gotten the title shot before. I’m the type of fighter who gives people opportunities and he was the fighter I needed to face to prove to the world what I’m all about.

 

 

 

“This is not a game for me. Everyone has heard about what it’s like to be in the ring with me, but until you’re in there, you don’t know for sure that what you’ve been hearing is for real. I’m the best in the world. I don’t think any heavyweight has been through what I’ve been through.

 

 

 

“I’m training for a certain type of mission. As a fighter I have to have the mindset that I must be ready for anything. Kemudian, once it’s time for the bell to ring, I become ‘The Bronze Bomber’.

 

 

 

“Fury has height just like me and he also brings an awkward style like myself. He’s rangy, mobile and he believes he’s the best in the world. You’ll get two giants who are athletic and move around the ring like no one else in this sport.

 

 

 

“They say that I have the power and he has the boxing skills. We’ll see on December 1. It’s a puncher versus a boxer. I think the puncher is going to box his lights out, and then I’m going to knock his lights out.

 

 

 

“I don’t watch too much film or study guys past getting their style down and seeing how they use their styles. My trainers watch film and use that knowledge to give me advice throughout the fight. I find that my opponents fight differently depending on who they’re facing, so I can’t dwell too much on watching past fights.”

 

JAY bagus, Jurulatih Wilder ini

 

 

 

“Tyson Fury is kind of like a Rubik’s cube. But a Rubik’s cube can be solved. Fury is a very versatile fighter who can move, he can box and fight from lots of distances. He’s the total package as a fighter and on top of that he’s strong-willed mentally.

 

 

 

“We have our hands full, but I know that Deontay Wilder is the guy to handle Tyson Fury. Deontay is the the right guy to take over boxing and this is the first step in that.

 

 

 

“Deontay has had a fantastic camp and we’ve had really good sparring partners. Fury is a tall fighter, but it’s really the athleticism that makes him what he is. We believe we’re better off finding more athletic guys who are slightly shorter than Fury, rather than someone his height who is a statue.

 

 

 

“Fortunately Deontay has always been a focused fighter, so keeping him right mentally I don’t think will ever be a problem. Deontay can handle any chaos around him better than anyone I’ve seen. When he says he’s the man for this job, he really means it.

 

 

 

“The tough thing with preparing for Tyson Fury is that even he doesn’t know exactly what he’s going to do in there. He can fight lefty, righty, dirty or clean. We’re working on being prepared for all of these things and more.

 

 

 

“Both guys are very athletic and very awkward style-wise, but once this fight combusts, it’s going to be phenomenal. You don’t want to blink or go to the bathroom, the pretzel can wait, because you’re going to want to catch every second of it.”

Lineal Heavyweight Champion opens up ahead of his fight against Deontay Wilder December 1 pada SHOWTIME PPV®.

APA: Lineal heavyweight champion Tyson Fury opened up to SHOWTIME Sports® juruhebah Mauro Ranallo about his years-long struggle with mental health in what Ranallo deemed the most important interview of his career. The two sat down in Big Bear, California where Fury has been training for his December 1 showdown against WBC Heavyweight World Champion Deontay Wilder hidup di Showtime PPV®.

 

 

Fury, who shocked the world in 2015 with a unanimous decision victory over former world champion Wladimir Klitschko, details his swift rise to the upper echelon of the heavyweight division, all while battling crippling depression and anxiety that diminished his love of the sport. He recounts his apathy toward boxing leading up to the Klitschko fight and the downward spiral he endured following his historic win.

 

 

Following his win over Klitschko, Fury would fail to face his mandatory challengers and attempted to combat his mental struggles with alcohol and drugs, eventually ballooning to 400 pound. The self-proclaimed “Gypsy King” hit a turning point in October of 2017, when he began to seek help for depression and anxiety and was diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder, which Ranallo also suffers from.

 

 

Ranallo’s battle with mental illness was recently chronicled in the SHOWTIME documentary BIPOLAR ROCK ‘N’ ROLLER, where the combat sports announcer showcases his struggles and advocates for the shattering of stigmas surrounding mental illness. Like Ranallo, Fury aims to raise awareness of his own struggles and encourage others to seek help.

 

 

“It was like having a fight in my own mind,"Kata Fury. "[Mental illness] is a silent killer. It is almost like carbon monoxide poisoning because you can’t see it. My calling card is to spread the word on mental health.”

 

 

Fury’s journey back to stardom began with back-to-back wins in his first two fights this past summer. He knocked out Sefer Seferi in June of 2018, and followed suit with a unanimous decision win over Francesco Pianeta in August. His August victory culminated with an in-ring confrontation with Wilder, where the two announced their upcoming heavyweight blockbuster fight.

 

 

The heavyweight showdown headlines the December 1 Showtime PPV hidup dari Staples Center di Los Angeles (9 petang. ET / 6 petang. PT). Wilder, who has knocked out all seven challengers of his title, will attempt to make his eighth WBC Heavyweight defense. In the third fight of his comeback, Fury has the opportunity to become a two-time heavyweight world champion.
